Clegg: Cradley Heathens must take it to the Max
Cradley captain Max Clegg insists tonight’s home clash with the Isle of Wight (7.30pm) is a must-win fixture.
After a bright start, the Anchor Logistics Heathens have lost three of their last four National League meetings – including their last two at Monmore Green.
And Clegg says he and his team-mates need to do everything to turn their fortunes around.
“We keep making silly little mistakes and they’re costing us,” Clegg said. “It’s frustrating. While I’m scoring well, I want to be scoring well in a winning team.”
CRADLEY: Max Clegg, Tom Spencer, Danny Halsey, Luke Harris, Jack Smith, Sheldon Davies, Harry McGurk.
ISLE OF WIGHT: Georgie Wood, Chris Widman, Ryan Terry-Daley, Danny Verge, Ben Morley, Chad Wirtzfeld, Connor King.
Clegg had four wins from five rides as Heathens went down 51-36 in a frustrating Saturday night at Stoke’s Loomer Road.
Controversial exclusions for Harry McGurk and guest rider Kyle Bickley, in heats eight and nine respectively, proved pivotal.
